    Meh

    Bad acting. Lame dialogue.

    Ruby is naive, unconfident, clumsy, a little whiny, and not impressively bright. And I'm a Sidney Bristow fan. But Bristow overplays all these traits and the result is not pretty. She suddenly sheds most of these flaws at least in degree.

    Woody is .... earthy. Franco Lo Presti interacts a lot with Bristow, but there's not really any chemistry.

    The story drags until the climax. And then the climax gets chaotic. It brings some spark to the movie.

    Overall I wouldn't watch this again.

    Not Lake Tahoe

    Well to start with , the movie supposed to be in Lake Tahoe and definitely was very obvious to me that is not where they are. If you are going to emphasize the activities guy was going to show the beauty of enjoying the outdoors in Tahoe it should actually be in Tahoe. The guy who played him was a little awkward to me and especially with his interactions with Ruby.

    A rom-com that works.

    I wasn't familiar with the leads Brittany Bristow and Franco Lo Presti, but they do a good job and have chemistry. The plot is hokey but it's not a terrible script, it's watchable.

    Lovely fit

    Great chemistry, good acting with few exceptions, lovely actors, very nice movie all in all. The dialogue was a bit too simplistic, the ending too abrupt. They should really focus more on originality, credibility, realism, quality, rehearsing, rather than fast filming, producing movie after movie with similar stories, pros and cons.

    Wow, the male lead is like a high school actor

    It's painful to watch him. He has no charisma, but he also had really weak material to work with. And these plots are always full of the weak-willed female lead and the man who had to come and save her. Sigh.
